Carrie (2026), Evil Born from Kindness

I do have a big expetations for this mini series because it was Stephen King !!!
But, compare to the 2013 film with same title ? This series turn out to be school drama more than the horror !

Airing on October 07, 2026 with total 8 episode, jujur sih ini series awalnya menarik but berakhir boring bangat because almost all of the part is mostly school drama and love life with a lot of kissing rather than the bullied.

Like we all know, this series is based on 1974 novel by Stephen King. Walaupun sudah ada adaptasi film sebelumnya pada 2013 and become internationally success, we all gonna think the series will be more complex and interesting because it was a horror, but… too high expetations end up with disappointed sih.

Carietta “Carrie” White live with her mother Margaret White. Always being kept at home, everything change when her father was die and she need to going to school and bersosialisasi. Never meet people before make Carrie act weird and other people start to bullied her especially when she got period and panic.

Since then, the school bullies is continue, but not like bullied bullies, is kinda like someone didnt like her, using her memes and make a account using her name and start to post anything gossip around the student, teacher, make everyone fight each other.

Need to protect her own self, slowly Carrie that felt life is not fair to her start to find out her power slowly. With her imaginary friend, Carrie start to learn how to use her power, but she is still kind, not until the prom come and ruin her whole kindness.

One things that we can learn from this series is that, the evil always born from the bullied and other evil.
If you are Carrie and face the same things, would you explode and mad ?
If I was her ? I will kill all of them too.

Even her own mother want to kill her and treat her like shit, what do we expect from her then ?
Keep being kind and let people walk all over her ?
I am really in Carrie team.

I really hope this series is all about Carrie and explainations of her power, but they are too focus in school problem, drama, love and blablabla, which make me losing interest but still trying to complete all 8 episode.
